[Alter]

Can we stop with the shitposting in the cacowards thread? Nobody's getting the golden poo award for terrible puns.

Although I've already nominated toooooasty in a previous post on this thread for his awesome maps on the Japanese Community Project....

I'd also like to add to that a nomination for the mapper 'Bemused' as a newbie slaughter mapper that has a lot of future potential, as seen in his Dank Midis and Linedefs wad which I found quite impressive at times.

So, Voros's count of the nominations is now pretty damn old, isn't it? So I've decided to update it a bit. I started counting from Voros's post. Sarcastic nominations count, people nominations don't.

(Voros's count in this spoiler)

I don't care if you didn't "actually" nominate a WAD/mod. You mentioning it and with a positive tone means you like it, and you mentioned it in this thread.

I also don't care if you were being sarcastic. This is not the place for that.

So, here it is! (my count, I mean)

Spoiler

AA -- 5
Hell on Earth Starter pack -- 2
Shadow of the Wool Ball -- 2
DooD -- 1
Seinfeld -- 1
D4D -- 2
JCP -- 4
Bloodstain -- 1
Phobos Incursion -- 1
Toilet of the Gods -- 1
Mano Laikas -- 1
Urania -- 2
Nex Credo -- 1
Good Morning Phobos -- 1
Mutiny -- 1
Natures Call (for Mockaward) -- 1
Minor Sprite Fix Project -- 1
THT: Threnody -- 1
H-Doom -- 2
Trailblazer -- 1
Guncaster -- 1
Bloody Rust -- 1

I, myself, won't nominate anything for now.

[Voros]

Didn't we settle for H-Doom to have a Mockaward?

[Jaws In Space]

Seeing that it wasn't nominated yet I'll give a vote for GZDoom Wobbly Shader for the Mockaward.

[Jayextee]

I find it surprising (and pleasantly so!) that Nex Credo is a nominee. Thanks, Not Jabba! :D

Imagine if I actually finished something though... ;)

[baja blast rd.]

Benjogami for most promising newcomer.

I just imagined H-Doom and Nature's Call fighting for the Mockaward title, and now I need to take a shower.

golden?

[Quagsire]

Like I said, D4D for best gameplay mod. You can't beat D4D when it comes to mechanics and looks.

I preferred Seinfeld, DooD and Wobbly Shader to H-Doom, that's just me though. All I can really say is that H-Doom looks like it took a lot of time consuming work.

[Alter]

H-Doom is just an another X-rated mod, DooD on other hand fucks with everyone on a new level unlike jokewads before, everyone who played it got something out of it, even if it was, a mindfuck.

[Voros]

H-Doom is the only X-Rated mod. All others are just stupid galleries or shooting down nude woman.

[SArais]

retractments man

[bioshockfan90]

Thought of another nomination. Nex Credo, at least for a newbie award. And Devilution if it gets finished this year.

Not only that, H-Doom is one helluva coding feat for a doom mod.

Is there any other kind?

Not sure I qualify as a newbie, but thank you. ;)

Haha, didn't see your other releases. But yeah, Nex Credo is solid.

Another reason on why H-Doom should get an award.

Yeah, when most of those galleries are just low quality images converted to software making them look even uglier.

[Linguica]

Oh my god shut up about HDoom in this thread.

[nxGangrel]

^I second this. Please stop. ._.

[SArais]

Eh, might as well toss WOOO 3 up again.

[Cynical]

I'd like to nominate Endpoint. Best mapset I've played this year; I easily enjoyed it more than AA. Eternal succeeds again.

[SArais]

Should we have awards for "Best X" outside of gameplay and map wads? We should probably bring up Monster, weapon, and otherwise; due to being a newer category, should be able to include prior years.


Best New Monsters (Harbinger.Wad should be mentioned)
Best New Music
Best New Weapon
Best Scrapped Wad (I nominate Demon Eclipse; I can post what I believe is the best version.)
Best Spriter/CarpalTunnelward (We should of had this ages ago); We need one for the guy who ruins his wrists for hours making the things we shoot at, run on, and pick up.

[Voros]

If there ever is a Best Spriter award, I nominate raymoohawk and CWolf.

[Marcaek]

How far do awards need to be broken down in catering to minor doom content?

[Tristan]

Personally I'd like to see an award for the map with the best use of midtextures on linedefs 37-45.

[Xaser]

Whoops, I don't think I ever filed my ballot for D4D for Best Gameplay Mod, so here you go.

[important disclaimer: not an official opinion of the Cacoward Committee(tm), as it were, if I'm even still a part of that. :P ]
